Chapter 329 What did you just ask me?

"Huh? Why?"

Huang Xin's voice drew the attention of Shen Xuewei and Su Shu.

They also wanted to know why Lu Jiayi, who was doing so well, suddenly lost her part-time job at the campus supermarket.

Lu Jiayi felt somewhat aggrieved when the matter was brought up.

"Don't even mention it. There's a new junior colleague who got the job through connections with the manager. But the supermarket can't hire that many people, so someone has to leave when he comes..."

"Just a few days ago, I made a small mistake at work, so the manager decided to fire me and have that junior colleague take my place..."

Upon hearing this, Huang Xin angrily rolled up her sleeves, "This is too much! How could they do this?"

"No, Jiayi, I'll go with you to reason with them."

Lu Jiayi was grateful that she was willing to stand up for her, but shook her head and refused.

"Forget it, I've already resigned, there's no point in asking for an explanation. Even if things get out of hand, I won't be able to go back later."

Huang Xin was still a little angry, "So that's it?"

"Yes, that's the only way."

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore. I'll see if I can find another part-time job later. In the meantime, I'll see if there are any certifications I need to take, and then I'll find a part-time job to take them."

Fortunately, although she lost her part-time job at the campus supermarket, she still has a tutoring job that pays her about 2,000 yuan a month, which is enough for her living expenses and tuition.

Even if I cause a scene, I won't be able to get this job back, and I'll also offend the campus supermarket.

It's better to settle things peacefully; at least they gave me a thousand yuan in severance pay.

The parties involved didn't need them to step in, and the dormitory residents never mentioned the matter again.

More than a month later, Shen Xuewei and Lü Zhuyin returned home after their club activities ended, around 9 p.m.

As soon as I returned to the dormitory building, I saw a man holding a bouquet of roses, kneeling in the middle of a heart-shaped arrangement of lit candles, gazing affectionately at the dormitory building in front of him.

A crowd of onlookers had gathered around him.

When Shen Xuewei and the others arrived, they learned from the conversations of the girls watching the commotion in the corridors that the boy had been standing there confessing his love for almost half an hour.

The girl he confessed to, however, went out with her head covered and rejected him.

He refused to give up and continued to wait outside the dormitory building to confess his love, saying that he would marry no one but that girl in his life.

Lü Songyun clasped her hands in front of her chest, her expression filled with longing.

"How romantic! I wish Xiuqi had confessed to me like that back then. Damn it, I'll make Xiuqi make up for it later."

Lü Zhuyin rolled her eyes. "Come on, who told you to go out of your way to fawn over that guy? If you put yourself down like that, he won't do it."

She touched her chin. "Being confessed to like that is quite romantic. More importantly, it makes you look good."

Lü Songyun nodded in agreement, "I wonder who the girl he confessed to is."

A girl who was staring at the dormitory building chimed in, "It looks like a girl named Xiaoxing or Xiaoxin..."

Other girls also expressed their opinions.

"Actually... I don't think it's romantic at all. The girl clearly didn't want to leave, but he wouldn't leave until she agreed. I think that's pretty scary."

Shen Xuewei, who had not expressed her opinion until now, nodded in agreement when she heard this.

Appropriate pursuit is fine, but excessive stubbornness, such as saying you won't leave until she agrees, is a form of moral blackmail, putting the girl on the hot seat of temptation.

Shen Xuewei glanced at it again, but didn't linger in the corridor.

After saying goodbye to Lü Zhuyin and Lü Songyun, he returned to his dormitory.

She had barely stepped into the dormitory when she sensed something was off about the atmosphere.

The source of this problem was Huang Xin, who had a sullen face.

Shen Xuewei glanced at Lu Jiayi, who then looked at Huang Xin and whispered a few words in Shen Xuewei's ear.

Shen Xuewei then realized that the man outside was actually confessing his feelings to Huang Xin.

During this period, Lu Jiayi had some free time, and Huang Xin spent most of her time with her. She spent less time with Shen Xuewei and therefore did not know that she was being pursued ardently by this boy.

After that day, the boy appeared more frequently.

Shen Xuewei and Lu Jiayi went to the cafeteria for breakfast and brought breakfast for Huang Xin on the way.

When they arrived at the classroom, they discovered that the boy had also brought breakfast for Huang Xin. He was sitting next to Huang Xin and eagerly handing her the breakfast.

Huang Xin was extremely annoyed. When she saw Shen Xuewei and the other person enter the classroom, she waved to them as if she had seen a savior.

When the two of them reached the empty seat on her left, she took the breakfast that Lu Jiayi handed her.

"You Yongyuan, I told you, someone will bring me breakfast. You don't need to bring it for me. You can eat it yourself."

You Yongyuan put the breakfast away with a gloomy expression, but did not leave.

He forced a smile and said, "I don't have class this morning, I'll accompany you to class."

Huang Xin was thinking of shooing people away, but Lu Jiayi touched her hand at that moment.

"Let him be. If he falls for someone, let him. Professor Qi is coming; don't let him notice..."

Even as the end of the semester approached, You Yongyuan continued to deliver breakfast and flowers to Huang Xin every day, rain or shine, never tiring of it.

Even Lu Jiayi was moved by what she saw.

When all four of them were neatly gathered in the dormitory, the topic came up again, and Lu Jiayi couldn't help but say:

"Xiao Xin, he is so devoted."

"Did you hear what he said? Although he has nothing now, he will give you everything in the future. I think he's a really good person. Why don't you consider him?"

Huang Xin was a little annoyed. "I already told you, he's not my type. I don't like him at all!"

Su Shu closed the laptop and turned to look at her.

"If you don't like him, then reject him and don't give him hope."

Huang Xin's mouth was dry from explaining, "I've rejected him countless times, but he's just so persistent, making me feel like I'm caught in the middle."

"Now, wherever I go, people think that I'm deliberately keeping him hanging on."

Why should I be with him just because he says he likes me?

"I don't want him following me around all day, it's so annoying!"

Lu Jiayi felt that her words were a bit harsh, considering that someone who liked her so much had their sincerity trampled on.

Huang Xin noticed her gaze and immediately became furious.

"Lu Jiayi, are you still my friend? How can you side with an outsider?"

Lu Jiayi quickly explained, "No, I didn't..."

Huang Xin was no longer willing to listen to her explanation. Frustrated, she kicked the table leg, then heard the clattering of keyboards. Looking at Chen Xuewei, she couldn't help but ask:

"Weiwei, tell me, was I wrong to refuse You Yongyuan?"

"Um?"

Upon suddenly hearing her own name, Shen Xuewei's thoughts went blank, and the sound of her keyboard stopped.

She turned her head and said, bewildered:

"What did you just ask me?"
